The Premier League returns to the fold with another round of matches this week as West Ham United lock horns with Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool side in an important encounter at the London Stadium on Wednesday.
West Ham United vs Liverpool Preview
West Ham United are currently in 13th place in the Premier League standings and have not been at their best this season. The Hammers thrashed Bournemouth by a 4-0 scoreline in their previous game and will need to work hard to achieve a similar scoreline this week.
Liverpool, on the other hand, are in seventh place in the league table at the moment and have been inconsistent this season. The Merseyside outfit edged Nottingham Forest to a 3-2 victory over the weekend and will look to take it up a notch in this match.
